I did this and found out the mother really wanted an electric breadmaker, I stayed there 20 days and it was a small price to pay for the warm hospitality they gave me. The mother loved the gift and the family loved the bread. I have stayed with them 4 times now, and each time I go, we sit with a bottle of vodka and fresh bread to celebrate my arrival in their home
